This is as close as I get...
Collect raw morgans, walkers, mercs, SLQ, barber q. Looking at getting into earlier date coins pre 1900s.
Can I post a Susan B or Ike?

Very nice coins.... I do not have any from the 1700's... I wish I had picked some up when I attended coin shows... always thought "Well, maybe next time.".... While getting coins for my CC series or something else. Oh well...add it to my list....
Cheers, RickO

My collection is a bit short on the dream coins:
They are cool coins, though, and the dreams are still good.
@yosclimber Several of the coins in your list are patterns and not regular issue business strike coins.

Nice SM JT!
By some definitions, yes.
But all the coins I listed are in the main listing in PCGS CoinFacts and the PCGS Price Guide,
and not in their (CoinFacts) Patterns section, where they have things like the Amazonians and Schoolgirls.

I probably have a double row box full of 1878 Morgan dollars, so I'll post these instead.

These are a couple of my first year coins, but I like damaged ones:

Collecting first year 1794 half dollars is interesting because there are 11 die pairings for a complete set. Most are rare to extremely rare, with two unique. I am using Tompkins numbers rather than Overton, from the excellent book Early United States Half Dollars 1794-1807. Tompkins numbers are by emission order, in the sequence the coins were struck. The following Tomkins numbers, rarity, and images are from my collection, in order of striking:
T-3, R-5 (31 to 80 known, rare) sunken reverse die
T-4, R-6- (25 to 30 known, very rare)
T-7, R-3 (201-500 known, scarce)
T-10, R-6 (14-30 known, very rare)
T-11, R-5 (31-80 known, rare) ex Eric Newman
WOW is all I can say so many beauties!!
